Abstract: A shaping clip for a shirt collar to hold the shirt collar in a neat round position when not being worn, and to prevent the shirt collar from becoming wrinkled. The shaping clip comprises an outer relatively long V-shaped band of somewhat resilient but yet stiff material to be placed along the outside of the central front portion of the shirt collar, and an inner relatively shorter arcuate shaped band of the same stiffening material to be placed along the inner surface of the central front portion of the shirt collar. A clamping mechanism is provided to clamp the outer band and inner band together with the central front portion of the shirt collar sandwiched therebetween. The clamp mechanism includes a socket member with a receiving socket integrally formed on one of the bands, preferably the outer band, and an insert member integrally formed on the other for clamping reception in the receiving socket of the socket member.
